Krakow, a college town with a long past

With crowds of tourists and a college-town atmosphere, Krakow -- once the capital of Poland -- has become a European hot spot. Krakow, a city of about 800,000 on the banks of the Vistula River in southern Poland, attracts about 7 million tourists a year. The city also boasts two dozen universities with nearly 210,000 students. The mix translates into a youthful, fun energy in the formerly communist country. --Caryn Rousseau. The Associated Press
